The first biomarker research workshop was held at the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) on September 24, 1993. A book summarizing that meeting and the one reported here will be published this fall by the Joseph Henry Press (the new arm of NAS Press).

The Human Genome Project (HGP) was an international 13-year effort, 1990 to 2003. Primary goals were to discover the complete set of human genes and make them accessible for further biological study, and determine the complete sequence of DNA bases in the human genome. See Timeline for more HGP history.
Published from 1989 until 2002, this newsletter facilitated HGP communication, helped prevent duplication of research effort, and informed persons interested in genome research.
